About this audiobook
"I'm a bodyguard. Not a Spy," Mara said.
The noble girl raised her eyebrows.
"We'll see."
Cast out of her family three years ago, Mara turned to the only place that would take her—a school where students train to protect others. But Mara is stunned when guarding a noble girl in the Empire's capital turns out to be more dangerous than she could've imagined. More shocking still, she finds the boy she thought she had lost forever outside the gates of her new home.
Mara knew the dizzying Imperial city would hold dangers. How could she have known that her heart, as well as her life, would be at stake?
Empire of Shadows will take readers on a spellbinding journey into the world Miriam Forster first introduced in City of a Thousand Dolls—a world with a divided society, deadly courtiers, heroic traitors, and deeply laid conspiracies.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I haven't read the author's first book, but this one will send me in that direction. This is rich, complex, and the sort of story that is easy to fall into and forget the real world. I hope the author continues to write.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really liked it but the more I think about it the more I find things to nit pick at.This gives some back story but I feel like it could've been a different place than City of a Thousand Dolls which is funny because it wasn't...And that's just one of the things that occurred after reading it...I'd recommend not to think too much about it after you're finished or else the mistakes become glaringly obvious. Gut instinct fresh off reading it I would have given it 5 stars but since I'm trying to be positive I'm leaving 4 1/2 stars.
